    This could get very interesting! Everyone should tidy up their areas, catalog what we find, and send it all to one builder for a combined community build!!
    Perhaps the one issue would be the likelihood of a body that went missing mysteriously!!

    Just too wet and humid to paint so pulled up stumps on the body. I've marked out where the bridge should go and levelled/filed the frets. I'll polish them just before final assembly. There were heaps of uneven frets so this should help with playability

    The body is still in prep mode so looks a bit patchy

    I can't believe that 2 weeks ago i was having to top my pool up to keep the pump and filter working efficiently, now i may have to do a purge to pump out excess rainwater and prevent an overflow.

    Weather is CRAZY at the moment. At least i can sand.
